Sarasota County · Tampa Bay & Gulf Coast
Solar Installer in Sarasota, FL
Premium solar and storm backup for Sarasota.
Your local Sarasota solar team
Sarasota and its barrier islands — Siesta Key, Longboat, Lido — sit on one of Florida's most beautiful and most storm-exposed stretches of Gulf coast. We bring the same in-house, no-subcontractor approach down to Sarasota County that we've run since 2006.
Sarasota is Florida Power & Light (FPL) territory, the state's largest utility, with its own net-metering structure. We design specifically around what FPL customers get back, paired with Enphase battery backup for the hurricane resilience this coast demands.
Why Sarasota homeowners choose May
Built around FPL
Sarasota is served by FPL, whose net-metering and rate structure differ from the Duke and TECO territories up the coast — we design for FPL specifically.
Coastal storm resilience
On an exposed Gulf coast, battery backup isn't a luxury. We size Sarasota systems to keep essentials running through outages.
Quality without the pressure
We bring premium REC and Enphase equipment and honest, right-sized recommendations — no high-pressure sales.

What Florida homeowners say
“Our lights stayed on through both 2024 hurricanes while our neighbors lost power — and the system covers our entire electric bill.”
“Ten years after they installed my system, I got same-day service. Where can you get that kind of high-touch service after 10 years? For me, it's May all the way!”
“Other companies gave very misleading information. May Electric gave us the truthful, correct information.”
Solar in Sarasota — common questions
- Do you install solar in Sarasota?
- Yes. We've served Sarasota County and the surrounding area since 2006, with our own in-house crews and a licensed Master Electrician on every job — never subcontracted.
- Who handles net metering in Sarasota?
- Sarasota is served by Florida Power & Light (FPL). We confirm your exact provider and design around its specific net-metering rules so the credit you earn for exported solar is reflected in your real numbers.
- Will my solar work during a power outage in Sarasota?
- Only with battery backup. A standard grid-tied system shuts off in an outage for utility-crew safety. We pair Sarasota systems with Enphase battery backup so your home can island and keep essentials running through storms.
- Is there still a federal tax credit for home solar in 2026?
- No — the 30% residential federal solar tax credit (Section 25D) expired at the end of 2025. Be cautious of any installer still advertising '30% off' to homeowners. Florida's sun, rising utility rates, and retail net metering still make solar a solid long-term investment. Consult a tax professional about your situation.
